This is in excellent or better used condition and shows only minor wear or use. The winder, shutter, and light meter are all working great. The shutter sounds very smooth at the slow speeds but it sounds fast to me. 1 sec sounds a bit like 1/2. B works fine. The folding mechanism works properly as long as you remember to set the focus to infinity. The aperture works fine. The bright line finder frame is bright. The lens is free of fungus or scratches but it is a bit dusty. I do not want to be the one to scratch it in a search for perfection. The I (big) B is not common. It updates the small b by adding the bright line finder and light meter. The lens is still the 50mm 2.8 Retina Xenar from Schneider. I have a case for this that I will include but it is not a very nice case. It will serve a purpose, but is not pretty. Please realize that I cannot guarantee a camera of this age and have stated that the shutter is fast. I cannot accept returns on vintage cameras. I am familiar with the Retina cameras and I have tried to describe it properly.
PLEASE CAREFULLY REALLY READ ALL OF THE FINE PRINT BELOW BEFORE PLACING YOUR BID
I primarily sell used photo equipment. As such it is usually not 100% perfect. I try to advertise items as honestly as I can, but if you are looking for something that is 100 % perfect it might be better if you buy the item new. Also, I do NOT use stock photos.
The following is for those that do not use eBay Global shipping:
Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.
We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
I cannot be responsible for delays caused by the post office or customs inspectors.

Buyer agrees to pay within 24 hours (if not immediately). Items will be shipped after I receive payment. Most items will be shipped within one business day and I work hard at this. Once in a while it may be 2 days. I do NOT ship on weekends. If there is going to be a delay, I will let you know.
FEEDBACK REQUEST:
If there is a problem with your product, please contact me. have no way of knowing that there is a problem if you do not tell me. Just contact me and tell me what the problem is.
